Hi everyone! I’m super happy to be back with a bonus post today. Today is really special for the Newton’s Nook Designs Design Team because we have joined together for a surprise birthday hop for the amazing Jennifer Jackson. Jennifer is the owner and illustrator for NND and we want to let her know how much we love her! So…happy birthday Jennifer!! Thank you for the opportunities you have shared with us and for all the creative inspiration!I went all in on the bright colors on this card! I love the lime green note card and thought the green and a bold pink would be fun with it. I colored using my Copics and added a sentiment from the same set on the stitched circle. For some more flair, I added striped baker’s twine and some coordinating sequins.
I hope Jen enjoys her celebration (and shock of shocks, I actually even got this in the mail!). In true NND style, we have a chance for you to win. See….everyone loves a birthday celebration!
